So what’s the reason Leavitt didn’t sign with us? $$$ ?
I will repeat my comments from day 1Make him say no to $4M then $5M then $6M with Cocoplum house rental, private chef, chaffeur, and Ruiz can park a demo Cigarette boat out back.
Miami made $14M (plus whatever of the $9M travel money we didn't use) so far.
Make the CFP final and we pocket $20M + $12M travel.
Beck grew up in Jacksonville, Fl. Ty Simpson apparently was born in the town pictured below (Martin, Tenn).Beck was an SEC type guy who also happened to commit to Bama before ending up in UGA. Pretty SEC-centric, now playing for the title in the ACC.
Amen.If 6.5 is the number, go get JKS from Cal...
We’re clearly paying a ton to retain Toney & top players. Not about to put limits on what we can be next year.Yeah. A roster that isn’t spending money on the top portal rentals and isn’t spending a ton to keep upperclassmen, is still competing for/winning the ACC.
We might play one Top 40 team next year in ND.
You could argue Pitt. Who we get at home.
The team is going to be fine with Emory during the regular season.
It’s just not going to be a special, and won’t have a hope of being special.
So when is the next time it can be special? That will be 2027.
I wouldn’t spend a ton on players that won’t be here in 2027, just to prop a team that has a real ceiling to what it can accomplish.
Also the state university of his home state needing a QB as well.Beck grew up in Jacksonville, Fl. Ty Simpson apparently was born in the town pictured below (Martin, Tenn).
Maybe he doesn't at all like the idea of a big city unless it's in the NFL? Who knows.

When it's all said and don he should arguably be first overall this year. This kid can do everything Mendoza can and more.
I'm the Raiders I pick this kid before Mendoza.
A bunch of teachers think I'm an A+ student, even though they all gave me F's. But I'm still an A+ student.How about the fact that he went in the FIFTH round?
You honestly believe that a guy with a FIRST ROUND GRADE is going to drop to the fifth round...because Neon Deion?
Get the **** out...
Imagine also getting almost twice the guaranteed money compared to going this year late in the 1st roundGotta hope he hates the teams that would draft him. $6.5mil aint a bad way to delay a year.
seems odd that the city would be a deal killer when he knows he has to live in the city in the NFL unless he plays for Grreen Bay. I think the issue of whether he is a first rounder or not is more significant.Beck grew up in Jacksonville, Fl. Ty Simpson apparently was born in the town pictured below (Martin, Tenn).

Probably be like 8.5 with him if you include the buyoutIf 6.5 is the number, go get JKS from Cal...
It doesn't get it done if he doesn't want Miami.brother, $7m gets this done.
You wouid have to believe if we win it all Becks stock wouid go up a lot .Sounds like a dad speaking well about his son more than actual real life that and if this is true they must have only contacted 2-3
maybe. I thought of that the other day, too.Regarding Ty Simpson remember he is a Saban recruit and he/his family may have spoken to Saban about next moves. I wouldn't be surprised if Saban has recommended Miami to the family.
My post is meant more as a "fit" into our program. Though, I agree with you it would be impractical. I think it's also wild to take the risk on him as a 1st rounder, but here we are.seems odd that the city would be a deal killer when he knows he has to live in the city in the NFL unless he plays for Grreen Bay. I think the issue of whether he is a first rounder or not is more significant.
What better way to prepare for the NFL, with skillset and living arrangements, than to come to Miami for a year for college.....Beck grew up in Jacksonville, Fl. Ty Simpson apparently was born in the town pictured below (Martin, Tenn).
